1. It’s been around for more than 50 years.

The reason why it’s been around for so long is that the story never gets old. It stays fresh every season with all of the new companions and leads introduced. There’s endless possibilities for what the series can explore.

No matter what your initial thought is of the new regenerations, every incarnation of the Doctor grows on you. You’ll embrace him like an old friend.

“Ugh, I’m not sure if I’ll like Matt Smith. David Tennant was my fav—” *2 episodes later*

Some regenerations of the Doctor are darker than most, but his wit, charm, intelligence, and overall compassion for all living things keeps you watching. You’ll follow him on any adventure, no matter how dangerous.

Time and Relative Dimension(s) in Space. Want to see the creation of the universe? OK, Cool. How about meet your favorite Victorian author? It will only take a second. Basically you can go anywhere you want to go throughout time and space, with the flick of a switch. COUNT ME IN, ALWAYS.

*Hears sound of TARDIS, drops everything and runs outside* *Never comes back*

Doctor Who, the companions that travel with the Doctor all have a special place in our hearts. They make the show that much more enjoyable and relatable. What would we do without Sarah Jane Smith, Sergeant Benton, Grace Holloway, Rose Tyler, and so many more…?

Doctor Who are another reason why the series is so exciting. The Daleks (and their feared creator Davros), the Cybermen, THE MASTER, the Sontarans, the Silence, etc, etc, etc. You never know what mysterious things you’ll come across…who knew that there was even a Devil in space?

It’s truly science fiction at it’s best.

8. Mixed in with some incredibly gut-wrenching moments.

*Thinks about when the Doctor was separated from Rose* *Cries for weeks*

Not to mention the amazing fan base that has been following the show since the beginning. Whovians, unite!

10. Don’t forget all the moments that made you want to sleep with the lights on when you went to bed.

No one will look at a statue the same EVER again.

Doctor Who episodes are the fluff episodes, where nothing much happens towards the overall arch of the season but it still offers a fun time for all. And even those episodes bring an abundance of importance to the characters.

13. It’s something that the whole family can enjoy.

Doctor Who is one of those special shows that you can watch with your parents over and over again because they also grew up watching it.

“Mom, I didn’t know you had all this Doctor Who merchandise from when you were young?!” *High fives*

Doctor Who theme song all day, every day*

“Gather ‘round, children. It’s time to watch the

There’s no other television series like it. All the adventures that await us with each new season are incredibly unique. There are so many people throughout history to see, so many points in time to visit. Where will the Doctor take us next? Who knows!
